nice work snowsock. But I would prefer the reflection must be flipped in the ball.

Thanks for the tut bro, I gotta try this sometime.

This tut is such fun. I couldn't get the top shadow right by painting it so I stroked the path with the airbrush, a fuzzy brush (enlarged to 2.7), jitter (default 0.2). It helps it stand out from the bg. The bg is fireplace crystals and I got it here: http://www.diamondfireglass.com/crystals.html There are a lot of color and type choices.

Thanks for the great tut! I love it!

Great Tutorial. Here's what I did with it.

(my wife and kids in a bubble in Manhattan)

then I decided my daughter needed a bubble of her own.

gotta love this stuff!!!

Those are positively awesome!

Your daughter cast as the Good Witch (was it Glinda?) in the Wizard of Oz is adorable. I bet she loved that.

Thanks! You should have seen the look on her face when she saw that as her wallpaper on her computer!

No tutorial images showing up for me :cry:

BLTicklemonster · **Posted:** Tue May 12, 2009 3:27 am

Eeek, you're right, no images!!!

Mylkal · **Posted:** Tue Jun 16, 2009 8:03 pm

Is there any chance this tutorial could be updated because the images on the front don't seem to work anymore

SilentGIMP · **Posted:** Wed Jun 17, 2009 9:07 am

I cant see the pics so I can only really make a flat circle and a floor badly

Use this in the meantime to get a feel for making the glass ball.

It is in the original post.

Unless anyone else tries, I'll attempt to recreate the images needed to go along with the original post, but it will probably take me a while to get time to do it. I'll just quote the original post and insert images where needed once I do. I hope the original poster doesn't mind if I do.

I was able to play with the tut making my best guesses at the images, based on others' results. Here's what I came up with:
